KS: Searching

Happy reading & ''Double

"Don't stay with me, Ki. I'm begging... I'm guilty, I'm so guilty... I'm sorry, honey... I'm sorry..." He said again as he put his body on the floor and scooped his face in frustration.

Sakti realized, he could not be like this. He immediately got up and looked at Kirana's wedding ring which was in his palm. The ring that Kirana almost never left.

"It'll always be yours, I'll put it on your ring finger again. Wait for me," Sakti said, inserting the ring into his pocket.

Sakti walked in a hurry to his parked car and at high speed he turned his car when the night began to dissolve.

The first place he went to was Kirana's parents' house in Jakarta. Although not occupied by Kirana's parents but there is a housekeeper who takes care of it.

The house looked quiet, Sakti also pressed the bell on the fence many times until a worker came to Sakti.

After asking and asking for permission, Sakti entered the house to confirm Kirana's whereabouts but apparently his wife and child were not there. Disappointed Sakti left the house.

Sakti keeps trying to contact Kirana but still can't. He contacted his brother-in-law but could not be reached. There's no way he's calling Kirana's parents this late, he'll wait until the next morning.

Driving in no direction, Sakti also began to fatigue. He started loosening his tie this morning Kirana put it on.

Sakti smiled wryly considering that.

Finally Sakti stopped his car in front of a luxury apartment building. Not wanting to be alone, he decided to spend the night in his sister Fabian's apartment.

Fabian opened his eyes when he opened the door, as if he had fallen asleep.

"Sister ? What about mab*k ?" Fabian asked who was astonished by his brother's arrival at midnight like this.

Unwelcome, Sakti breaks into Fabian's apartment.

"Lo fight ma bini ? Expelled brother Kirana ? Tumben very angry wife Lo to rich like this," said Fabian streak.

"Whisper, Bi ! I just want to go to sleep," answered Sakti who immediately laid her body on the sofa.

Fabian walked into the room and returned with a blanket in his hand.

"Lo change clothes first cake, very dirty." Fabian said, but Sakti kept quiet by closing his eyes.

Actually the head of the Sakti is so heavy with a variety of thoughts, but he was confused about where to tell.

Seeing Sakti who seemed not ready to talk, Fabian decided to return to his room.

Sakti closed her eyes trying to fall asleep. His eyes were closed, but he did not sleep. Every sound he could still hear, even the sound of the movement of the clock every second he could hear clearly and it happened until morning greeting.

He got up to sit, his head was throbbing violently. Sakti scooped her face with both hands.

The first thing he did was try to contact Kirana again, but it remained the same as the day before still unable to be contacted. Fearfully, Sakti tries to contact her in-laws but the same goes for Kirana. They can't be contacted.

Fabian came out of his room and came over.

"Why actually? Renata said you called him last night, sister Kirana,"

"The story is long" Sakti replied blankly in any direction.

"Gue was long" replied Fabian.

Sakti was about to tell me when Fabian's phone rang.

"I'll take a call first" Fabian said, standing and walking a bit away.

"Yes, honey, I'm awake. Breakfast bread or cereal. Love you dear," Fabian said to his interlocutor Renata.

Sakti looked at him enviously.

Long ago...

Kirana always treated him with tenderness and affection.

"Stupid !" Sakti engumpat himself.

"Lo stupid Sakti !" Hit again.

"So how's the story?" Ask Fabian.

"Tar aja. I'm pinching Lo's shirt, Bi. Keep showering away." Answer Sakti.

"To the office ? Just go with it."

"So, I'm going to Singapore" Sakti replied .

***

Sakti arrives in Singapore during the day, his first destination being the residence of Kirana's parents.

After waiting for a while, the waiter at Kirana's parents' house came to him. But the disappointment pill must be swallowed back. Kirana's parents are nowhere to be. According to his servant, both of Kirana's parents were on vacation abroad.

Sakti left disappointed. This time he will visit his sister-in-law's office. Sakti waited anxiously.

Not in line with expectations, who met him was not Robby but his assistant and said that Sakti's sister-in-law was on a business trip to Shanghai China for the next 2 weeks.

Sakti starts to feel anxious, bad thoughts haunt her. She was worried about Kirana and her two children.

The phone in his pants pocket is vibrating. Sakti hastily picked up the flat object, and was disappointed when not the name Kirana listed there.

Sakti : hello

Papi Sakti: where are you?

Sakti: mmm, I have an appointment to see a client

By having to lie.

Papi Sakti: are you in Singapore ? Looking for Kirana ?

Sakti was silent not answering.

Papi Sakti disconnects the call first, and leaves Sakti frozen silent.

***

Meanwhile, Kirana was accompanying her two children swimming in one of the luxury apartments with her father and mother who also accompanied there.

They knew Sakti would catch up, so for a while Kirana hid first.

"Sakti went to your sister's house and office" Kirana's father said.

Kirana responded indifferently.

"Pardon me for setting you up with him. I thought Sakti would be a good husband" Kirana's father said regretfully.

Seeing the face of her father who was blushing and looking tired, Kirana did not want to add to the burden of her father's mind.

"Father is innocent. We ourselves agreed to the matchmaking it's just that our soul mate ended up here. I also do not regret marrying Sakti, because I have been through a happy time and therefore I have 2 amazing children to make me happy. So Kirana please, father and mother don't blame yourself." Kirana tried to calm down.

"Mom wishes you happiness, son." Said her mother while giving gentle strokes on Kirana's back.

"Of course I'll be happy again. Don't worry, I don't worry" replied Kirana.

Kirana looked at her two children from a distance. What he said to his parents was the right thing.

She had felt the happiest times of her life when she was still with Sakti, making her fall in love with her husband even though the word love was never spoken and the presence of her two children was the most make happy.

Kirana's mind drifted, re-imagining when she had to remove her wedding ring. It was the hardest inner struggle Kirana had ever felt. His heart ached when he had to remove the ring. The shadow of Sakti when pinning to her ring finger was clearly visible in Kirana's mind.

Kirana took off the ring with a flashback shadow of her life. The happy and bitter times were so vivid in his mind that Kirana steadily removed the ring and returned it to Sakti as a sign of their disconnection.

Not noticeably, clear water in his eye sinks the cheeks. Kirana quickly wiped it off with the back of her hand.

Kirana didn't want her parents to see her cry. Kirana does not want her father and mother to feel guilty about what is happening to her.

***

Sakti arrived in Jakarta in the afternoon. He went straight to the residence of his parents who had been waiting for his arrival.

"Sit !"

Sakti obeyed that order.

"We know what happened between you and Kirana. Papi had also contacted both of Kirana's parents to discuss the matter. What we did to you is wrong. We shouldn't have made a match." Said Sakti's father.

Sakti fell silent, trying to examine every word of his father.

"Did Papi know that Kirana is fighting over my divorce ?"

Sakti's father nodded his head.

"Why didn't Papi say ?" Ask Sakti with a slightly raised voice.

"What's in it ? Kirana will divorce you."

Sakti was silent and could not say anything. What his father said has a point. The mistake he made was fatal, and Kirana indeed deserved to divorce him.

But Sakti realized, he did not want to be left behind. He wants Kirana back with her two children. There was an empty feeling in his heart when Kirana left.

"Some of you don't reflect on your sister's experience anyway. Mami was surprised by you guys. Dikasih good wife still nyari outside. Mending if the woman you're dating is a good woman," her mama's nagging.

"Mending is the Bian accidentally involved with the woman. But you're Sakti ? Even worse than your sister," her mother grumbled with anger.

Sakti just lowered her head avoiding her mother's nagging.

Want Sakti to say that it was he did to avenge Kirana but surely he himself will be cornered.

"Real up your problems. Papi and Mami are old, wanting a quiet life. While Kirana and your children are doing fine, they're not ready to meet you." Obviously Sakti's father.

"Are they in Singapore?" Ask sakti.

Papi just nodded his head in response.

***

That night Sakti was determined to solve his problem. The first thing he did was no longer related to Vanya. He will break their partnership.

Sakti came to her ex-boyfriend at his apartment.

"What is this ?" Vanya was astonished when she received a map from Sakti.

"Our cooperation is off ! I don't want to work with Lo ! I told you I'd make a calculation," growled Sakti.

Vanya received the map and opened it.

"No problem" replied Vanya coldly.

"But I want to remain your lover" Vanya said with her demonic smile. He still feels challenged to conquer the heart of Sakti.

"Are you crazy ?" Tanya sakti Sakti.

"Your crazy lover has a lot of friendly photos with you. What happens when I send these photos to the people closest to you. Or maybe journalists. It will definitely be interesting news," said Vanya full of threats.
